Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge #28

I have been wanting to enter one of the challenges for Stampin Sisters in Christ, but have very few stamps with a religious content. However, their current one is lovely, and seemed possible for anyone. "Do this challenge, as if you were doing it for Christ himself!"
I have always loved Holman Hunt's The Light of the World, one version of which hangs in St Paul's Cathedral in London. I like the symbolism of Christ knocking at an overgrown door that has no handle on the outside, only on the inside.
That was my inspiration for this challenge - hence the door and the greenery. I wanted to do something about the handles, but realised that it is very apt they are there - on my side, as it were.
